About Me
- Dee Renee Chesnut
- I'm a reader who enjoys posting comments and recommendations about the books I read. You will not find a synopsis with my recommendations because you can just click on the book title for a link to www.goodreads.com for a synopsis and reviews by other readers. I prefer the 3 Reason format: the reason I chose to read it; the reason I liked (or disliked) the book; and the reason I recommend it.

Cardinal Cabin by Joanne DeMaioMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
This ebook was the December 2019 Serial Reads from Barnes and Noble.
I read several books by DeMaio this year, and this was worth recommending to my friends who enjoy a romance with a location as an additional character.

The Fifth Risk by Michael LewisMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
I borrowed this book from Overdrive from my local library. I enjoy this type of non-fiction.
I learned more about the information collected by the government, and how data scientists often use it to provide services we need for the common good. It was disheartening to read how poorly prepared the Trump campaign was about a mandated transition team and what poor choices were made for the administration when the priorities valued more campaign contributions than knowledge and experience.
I highly recommend this for all people of the voting age. Yes, some of the rhetoric does seem like Trump-bashing; yet, if you read with curiosity about what the federal government can do for the common good and where these departments are administered, there are lessons to learn for all of us who feel frustrated that politics intereferes with what might actually be done.

Drawing Zentangle Sea Life by Catherine ArdMy rating: 3 of 5 stars
I borrowed this ebook thru the Hoopla app from my local library.
It is only 35 pages long, and it was fun to do some of the drawings with my 8-year old granddaughter. I like the idea to use pictures from children's coloring books as the "string" to fill in with tangles.

Protector by Laurel DeweyMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
This ebook has been in my Nook library since 2012 when Barnes and Noble offered a free download of the ebook.
The author managed to show growth for our protagonist and drive the suspense of the story.
Some readers might be uncomfortable with Jane's use of the F word, but it seems to fit her character.
